    Question

    I am 18 and still haven't had sex. A friend of mine told me that if a girl gets married as a virgin, when she gets pregnant for the firt time the pregnancy will lead to miscarriage. She said that it is better to break it before getting married, so i want to know if it is true or not.

    Answer

    Miscarriage has nothing to do with whether or not you are a virgin at your marriage. Please do not listen to that friend!
